A tribological study in the perspective of vibro-electric analysis

Journal Title: Archives of Materials Science and Engineering - Year 2016, Vol 78, Issue 2

Abstract

Purpose: In this case study, oil starvation failure that is a common problem for mechanical constructions has been studied within perspective of vibro-electric analysis. The purpose of this research is testing material properties of a ball bearing under the oil starving failure and condition of resonance for inspecting predictive maintenance approaches.Design/methodology/approach: A test setup construction designed, built and placed in a laboratory location. An electrical motor has been selected for collecting electrical and vibrational data over a bearing by making tests. Test has been implemented under the electricity frequency of 63.8 Hz that was induced the rotation of electrical motor in order to set rotational speed.Findings: Respect to results of the analysis, inspecting of oil starving failure and resonance problem has been detected more clearly and informative by vibration analysis.Research limitations/implications: This research study is limited with some experience and data from case companies, data from relevant scientific literature and theories through scientific databases.Practical implications: Implementation of condition monitoring technologies on mechanical systems brings similarities with the health systems of the human beings. Such as developments in technologies of human health management, consultation of the mechanical systems should be practised in order to prevent breakdowns which cause unplanned stoppages. Vibrational and electrical monitoring techniques can be applied at enterprises in order to ease and reach higher accuracy for detection of symptoms cause from mechanical fault initiations.Originality/value: The originality of this research receive resources from comparison of traditional condition monitoring tool vibration analysis and more recently developed electrical consumption analysis used for predictive maintenance.
